- Description
- 1. a. Sources are being sought to provide one (1) radio frequency alarm monitoring system. The radio frequency alarm monitoring system is required to report the occurrence of fire, flooding, electrical current, unauthorized entrance, and unsatisfactory dehumidification and cathodic protection for thirteen (13) ocean-going vessels. Vessel mounted Remote Terminal Units (RTU) will collect data from sensors mounted at various locations throughout the vessel, determine if an alarm condition is present and respond to the alarm by initiating an immediate transmission to the Base Station, or store the data if it is within normal parameters. b. The System shall use a quiescent plus polled protocol, whereby the radio system is normally silent except when a vessel mounted RTU detects an alarm or an analog value change below or beyond set points preset by System operators for that sensor. The System shall be polled from the Base Station on a timed basis or on demand. The normal polling procedure will collect maintenance data from each vessel-mounted RTU (battery voltage, sensor status, communication status, current alarm conditions, etc.). An alarm event, defined as a digital sensor trip or an analog value outside of normal parameters, will cause the vessel mounted RTU to initiate an immediate communication to the Base Station. In the event of a communication failure, the RTU will continue to poll the Base Station until it receives an acknowledgement that the data was received. The radio system will use an approved error checking protocol to insure correct data transmission. c. The System shall be capable of independently monitoring a minimum of eleven (11) analog and digital or contact closure type sensors. The system shall be capable of expanding to fourteen (14) sensors per vessel. The number of vessels the system can monitor shall be unlimited. The Contractor shall be responsible for furnishing, integrating, and optimizing the system as well as installation, training, and long-term support. 2. This action is classified under NAICS Code 561621 ALARM SYSTEM MONITORING EQUIPMENT, SIZE STANDARD IS $11.5 million, SIC 7382 SECURITY SYSTEMS SERVICES. Large and small businesses are encourged to contact the Contracting Officer before 8/25/08 if they provide the described services. 3. Sources sought responses are due by 8/25/08 at 1:00 p.m. P.S.T., by mail or email to the attention of Debra Velmere, Contracting Officer. Please do not send facsimles. Please include the RFQ number (DTMA4Q08014) in the correspondence. POC Debra Velmere, debbie.velmere@dot.gov, Phone (415) 744-4140. 4. The Combined Solicitation/Synopsis under the RFQ number DTMA4Q08014 (basic announcement) is extended to allow time for responses to the Sources Sought request deadline of 8/25. Closing date of the Combined Solicitation/Synopsis is extended to 8/29/08. 5. Point of Contact: Debra Velmere, debbie.velmere@dot.gov, Phone (415) 744-4140
